Giants signed third-round OLB Lorenzo Carter to a four-year contract.

Carter (6’5/250) made 26 starts in Georgia's linebacker corps, logging 20.5 career tackles for loss with 14 sacks and seven forced fumbles. Carter shredded the Combine with 4.46 speed and 96th-percentile SPARQ results, highest in the entire class of edge defenders. "What you have to appreciate is his unseen production," GM Dave Gettleman said after drafting Carter. "If he is flying off the edge, he is creating pressure." Carter will push Kareem Martin this summer. May 10 - 4:10 PM

Carter (6’5/250) made 26 starts in the Bulldogs’ linebacker corps, logging 20.5 career tackles for loss with 14 sacks and seven forced fumbles. SEC coaches named him second-team all-conference in 2017. Carter shredded the Combine with 4.46 speed and 96th-percentile SPARQ results, highest in the entire class of edge defenders. Although he lacks the quickness, explosion, and down-to-down aggressiveness of teammate Roquan Smith, Carter played with more power and is a better pass rusher. Carter has an opportunity to start over OLB Kareem Martin from the moment camp opens. Apr 27 - 9:24 PM
